PTGui RAW Workflow question

Hi, PTGui World!

Is there any additional tools (except "Postprocess" tab in "Panorama Editor" windows) for RAW format files stiching?

So far it seems that RAW stitching only makes sense if there is no RAW converter. :-(

Hi Mikhail,

PTGui is will never fully replace a specialized raw converter. But it
can do a lot already, what is it that you are missing?

Curves and exposure can be changed in Post Processing
Shadows and highlights can be adjusted under Tone Mapping
White balance can be adjusted in the Panorama Editor
Noise CA and purple fringe can be reduced in the RAW preprocessing tab
PTGui automatically corrects lens distortion and vignetting

If that's not enough, you have two options:

- stitch from RAW to DNG output, and process the panorama in your raw
converter.

- Or convert your raw images to 16 bit TIFF first, and stitch those in
PTGui.

Kind regards,

Hi, Joost,

Although I use to convert RAW to TIFF by Capture One and than stitch to pano, will try process pano in PTGui completely. It's a challenge :-)
